I know this is a tough question but, the mag hemi crossrams don't have a date code on them like the aluminum ones do. Is there a way to tell which ones would be proper on a 65 and which ones would have been made for a 68? Of course they sold these over-the-counter for a long time also. The photos are of 2 different intakes. The castings tags are slightly different. There are also 2 tags each on the side and I sent a photo of the best one. I know it's a tough question but I thought i'd ask. Thanks.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Mine had no numbers on it, been "massaged" by Diamond-Elkins...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

What difference does it really make if the magnesium manifold was cast in 1965 or 1968? Magnesium can't talk. There is no way to tell. I owned this magnesium intake manifold and carbs, for years before i sold it off. You are correct, no casting dates on it.

It doesn't really matter to me. I just thought if anyone was still alive with that info now would be the time to get it.
